ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill., Oct. 04, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Paylocity Holding Corporation (Nasdaq:PCTY), a cloud-based provider of payroll and human capital management software solutions, announced today the release of a new Partner Portal, dedicated to the success of their broker and advisor channel. Partners can begin accessing the portal on November 1, 2016.

"Paylocity has continued to up their game in their commitment to the broker/consultant channel.  Long a friend to the broker community, Paylocity has now invested more resources, money and time into that commitment," said David Contorno, President of Lake Norman Benefits. "The improved Partner Portal gives my agency unprecedented access to key payroll reporting that allows us to better serve our mutual clients by getting real-time and historical data to better support compliance, reporting, renewals, and data integrations needs. As our role rapidly evolves, so too is Paylocity in meeting the needs we have."

For benefit brokers, the portal contains functionality and features for recent hires and terminations, ACA overview of affordability, eligibility, FTE counts, company setup information on employee measurement periods, and a company/set picker. Financial advisors access a portal built just for them, featuring data on recent hires and terminations, 401k company match breakdown, total contribution, participation, and a company/set picker. There is no cost to the partner for this service.

"I am very impressed with the degree in which Paylocity is listening to us and investing its resources into solutions that deepen its relationship with broker partners," said Michael Uretsky, Senior Vice President, Eastern Insurance Group. "This first generation Broker Portal is a leap forward in offering a comprehensive platform with access to timely and usable client data that supports a broker's commitment to proactive client management and service to both active and terminated employees."

In addition to partnering with brokers and advisors, Paylocity has announced new API and data integration capabilities for vendor partners. "Paylocity has a rich history of integration and partnership. We believe clients should choose solutions that are the best fit for their businesses, and we allow those vendors to integrate with Paylocity for a seamless experience for our clients," said Michael Haske, SVP of Sales and Marketing at Paylocity. As a complement to Paylocity's existing portfolio of integration capabilities, real-time API functionality is a natural addition.
